Are you in need of travel inspiration? No problem. Social media, in particular Instagram, has become a well-known channel for travel bloggers to share their journeys. Travelers have taken to the popular free photo-sharing mobile app to guide their followers through their destinations and activities, hoping to inspire others to travel.
While there are plenty of great brand-powered travel accounts, personal accounts have a sense of realness and personality. Here are the top five travel accounts you should follow to help you get inspired.

Murad Osmann has some of the most beautiful photos ever taken. The Russian photographer and his wife, Natalia Zakharova, explore the world.
